Patent EP-0508498-A2 (EP)
Inventor: YAMAKAWA TSUTOMU
IPC: G01T1/20
Filed: 1986-04-09
Abstract: A scintillation camera apparatus (100) comprises a plurality of photomultipliers (20A, 20N), a plurality of high voltage control circuits (2A, 2N), and a comparator (8). The photomultipliers (20A, 20B) generate radiation energy signals upon receipt of incidence light. The comparator (8) compares the peak pulse heights of the radiation energy signals with corresponding reference peak values to derive deviation signals. Based upon the deviation signals, the supply of the high voltages to the photomultiliers (2A, 2N) is independently controlled.

Abstract: Apparatus (10) for indicating the level of flowable material in a storage bin (24) that includes a motor (30) mounted within a protective enclosure (12) and coupled by a shaft and clutch arrangement (46) to a paddle (40) disposed within the bin to engage material therewithin. When the material reaches the level of the paddle, drag on the paddle causes the motor to rotate within the enclosure against the force of an adjustable spring (74) to activate switches (64,66) disposed within the enclosure for indicating material level. The switches also remove power from the motor and apply power to an electrical resistance heater (96) to warm the enclosure and help prevent condensation at low external ambient temperature. The paddle (40) is constructed to enhance drag when used in conjunction with low-density materials.

Abstract: An electronic timepiece which has storage means storing the positions of the pointers and controls the drive of the pointers. 
     A transfer means acts to transfer data between a first pointer position storage means and a second pointer position storage means. A drive-stopping means activates the transfer means. At this time, the transfer means transfers the positional data stored in the first pointer position storage means to the second pointer position storage means. If the output from a voltage comparator means indicates that the supply voltage exceeds a threshold voltage value set by a threshold voltage value-setting means, then a starting control means transfers the data stored in the second pointer position storage means to the first pointer position storage means.

Abstract: A method for fabricating a charge-coupled device includes the steps of forming a photoelectric conversion region (3) and a charge transfer region (4) within a surface region of a semiconductor region of a first conductivity type by introducing impurities of a second conductivity type, an element isolation region (5) by introducing impurities of the first conductivity type. The element isolation region (5) defines the photoelectric conversion region (3) and the charge transfer region (4) and also defines a charge-read-out gate region (9). The impurities of the first conductivity type are introduced by using a mask pattern which allows a uniform channel width at the charge transfer region (4). The mask pattern takes into account the lateral diffusion which develops during the thermal process applied after the formation of the element isolation region (5) and is thus set back from the edge line of the charge transfer region (4). The uniform channel width at the charge transfer region (4) suppresses the occurrence of potential dips caused by narrow channel effects so that efficiency of charge transfer is enhanced.

Abstract: According to the invention there is provided a chain lever hoist comprising a main framework (1), a load sheave (2) fitted to said main framework (1) in such a way that it is able to rotate freely, a spindle (4) fitted to said main framework (1) in such a way that it rotates along with said load sheave (2), a fixed friction plate (6) secured to said spindle (4), a hub (5) screwed onto said spindle (4), a ratchet gear (7) and a plurality of brake linings (8) fitted onto said spindle (4) such that they are able to rotate and slide freely between said fixed friction plate (6) and said hub (5), a plurality of ratchet pawls (7a) fitted to said main framework (1) such that they engage said ratchet gear (7), and a position locking mechanism (11, 5c; 12, 13, 13a, 14, 14a; 13', 15, 15, 16, 16; 17, 18, 18, 19, 19) that locks said hub (5) into a prescribed lock position in relation to said spindle (4) after it has been rotated through a few degrees from the winding operation position. The hoist of the present invention is designed to enable said hub (5) which screws freely onto said spindle (4) in the conventional manner, to be rotated through a few degrees into a prescribed lock position relative to said spindle (4) and then locked there either temporarily or permanently as required. Hereby a major drawback of the commonly used hoists of the kind referred to above is overcome. This drawback resides in the fact that, if the chain is drawn quickly over the load sheave (2) while it is set for free running operation, the brake will automatically be applied and the free running movement terminated. Similarly, if a light load is suspended from the chain, the weight of the load may be insufficient to activate to brake with the result that the load will be wound down dangerously quickly, leading on occasion to accidents.

In another arrangement, an auxiliary sand screen having a plurality of sintered, substantially spherical plastic members covering a perforated mandrel is inserted into the bore of a primary screen, for example, a conventional wire-wrap sand screen. The auxiliary sand screen is thus interposed in the flow path for screening out sand fines which may be conducted through the wire-wrap screen because of screen damage caused by corrosion or sand erosion.

Abstract: A single-mode optical waveguide fiber designed to limit power penalty due to four wave mixing and a method of making the waveguide is disclosed. Variations in properties, e.g., radius or refractive index, of the waveguide fiber core provide a total dispersion which varies along the length of the waveguide. The algebraic sum of products of length times total dispersion is controlled to a pre-selected value for each waveguide fiber which makes up a system link. Proper choice of total dispersion variation magnitude and sub-length results in a system link wherein a signal travels only short distances in waveguide portions having total dispersion near zero. However, the variation of the total dispersion provides a system link which has a pre-selected dispersive effect on the signal over a selected wavelength range. The dispersive effect on the signal can be chosen to be essentially zero. A number of techniques for fabricating DM fiber are also disclosed.
